Tyreke Smith '25 Recruiting Profile

Hello Coaches, My name is Tyreke D. Smith, I am a defensive end, linebacker, and running back. I graduate in 2025. I believe what really makes me a good candidate for a football team is my ability to communicate coaches and teammates. I'm a very athletic and a strong athlete. I love to run, and lift weights as it helps me grow and build my character, and keep my mindset on the right path. I feel one thing that makes me different to anyone you'll ever meet is that I can go through some adversity and still move on to being me and through it learn and grow. I believe that I am also a very creative person in anything really not just football, but during football I feel I can get creative as well. 

Currently I'm at Green Level High School and am currently working to improve my grades significantly during this year to get a better GPA than what I have right now.

A little about me:

I have 2 biological siblings. When I was 6 or 7 me and my two other siblings (one brother and one sister) got separated by social services. A few years down the line after foster care I got adopted by former Paralympic athlete, Andrea Woodson-Smith, and Jeremy Smith. I went into middle school, and did very well then decided I wanted to play football. Unfortunately, I couldn't play because I was a 6th grader so I chose to be a manager for the team. The next year my wrist had a fracture which meant I couldn't play again. It was 8th grade and COVID came so we were online and because of COVID that meant I couldn't play again, so I waited until I got to high school. Then I did play freshman year without any experience and wasn't the best. Sophomore year I knew more and became starting DE on the JV team at Panther Creek High School. Now currently because of location I switched to Green Level high school and am doing great at DE on the Varsity team.

I love this sport, ever since I was very little. I always played it with friends, watched it on TV with family members arguing about what teams and players were better. Now I'm glad that I finally get to be a part of not just Football but my Football Family. It is my dream and goal to play college football with aspirations of making it to the NFL. I'm a dedicated and committed athlete as my 6AM workouts before school show. I'm always looking to get better and become a great football athlete, teammate, and student-athlete. 

40yd - 4.6, 21.6 mph, 10.1 horizontal jump, 4.6 shuttle.

Sports I play/ played:

1. Football
2. Track
3. Basketball (used too)
4. Rugby(didn't go through with it due to COVID)

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Tyreke D. Smith
